I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1283: 18.121 First Grey Star - The Forgotten Ancient God

The one and only natural god was on the verge of demise. His supporters started to turn on him one by one, even in the water. The youngest remains the only one. A tiny Moray eel was saved by the Ancient God, who raised it until it hatched and was born on world. But over time, human waste contaminates the ocean, devastating the environment.

{Little one, you should leave like the rest. I can no longer protect you like before.}

”No! I wonʼt leave! If even Lanyu leaves, the Lord will be alone. I wonʼt leave!” The little Moray Eel said.

{But Iʼm dying. I canʼt even protect you from these corrupted auras, and I am afraid they would harm you as well. Little one, be good. You must leave.}

”I wonʼt leave. Iʼm not listening. Lanyu is staying here with you!”

Over time, some of the oceanʼs water gets tainted, weakening, infecting, and eventually killing people who love it. The ancient deity tried to protect the water, but he became weaker as his spirit progressively grew darker and gloomier, and he had nowhere to escape. He was dying a slow death. Just when he thought he would die by himself, this small Moray eel stayed by the old godʼs side.

He did everything in his power to keep the child safe, despite his condition. But he is too feeble to do anything more.

{Little one, can you run an errand for me?}

”But... Lanyu doesnʼt want to leave. Can Lanyu not go?”

{But this is the only way to save me. Donʼt you wish to cure me?}

”I want to cure the Lord, but... Lanyu doesnʼt want to leave your side.” This little Moray Eel suddenly fell in front of the ancient god.

The god panicked, and he caught his last believer. As he was afraid, staying by his side also corrupted the little oneʼs mind, who was much weaker than he was.

{LITTLE ONE! No. No! This canʼt happen. I will not allow you to die.}

The old god planted one of his hearts—the source of his divinity—with this small follower after excavating another. The tiny one was too weak, so he could only send the small Moray Eel away, but the divinity in his heart healed the little one and cleansed his corruption. He threw himself far away from this contaminated location by controlling the water to shield him from the contamination.

The only way to save his child is to do this. After all, the evil within him began to spread far more quickly than it had previously the instant he lost one of his hearts.

{Live, my last believer. Once I am gone, the Ocean will only have you as its last god.}

He tore up the terrain, divided it into numerous areas of danger, and created a massive fissure in the ocean floor. The primordial deity absorbed all impurities from the sea and took refuge at the trenchʼs lowest point. How long the ancient god had lain in slumber is a mystery. The Ancient God was no longer the natural deity adored by the sky when he awoke the next morning.

But out of all the lunacy that other believers had bestowed upon him, a wicked god was born. That is how he got the moniker Cthulhu, the God of Madness.

Back to reality...

The sea god Lanyu had no idea that he would be the last person to worship the ancient god Cthulhu. His eyes streamed down his face in uncontrollable tears. He is not an idiot, after all. He realized that he had killed the only family he had in this world by being exploited by the skies. Finally, without the godsʼ restrictions on his soul, Lanyu recalled everything that had been taken from him.

He had always been puzzled as to why he was never really harmed by someone with Cthulhuʼs level of power. The manner in which the malevolent deity has treated him has always baffled him.

The evil god has destroyed everything or anybody that irritates him. For some reason, the heavenly guardian did not really try to pursue him, and he was not even scared of Heavenly Guardian Fei in this danger zone. Never before had the Heavenly Guardian Fei been this close to the sky. He had worked hard to earn his strength, and he had used his own hands to exact his retribution.

The heavens ignored his pain and never offered him assistance. For this reason, Heavenly Guardian Fei never trusted the sky and disregarded orders to destroy the Evil Octopus God.

Thus, Sea God Lanyu had been given this mission. Who would have guessed that God was playing tricks on him? With the masterʼs heart, he was the rightful ocean god. However, the skies never stop telling him that he is not intended to be the true Ocean God. Su Jin, the recipient of the Ocean Pearl, appears to have been this someone.

The Ancient God had been stripped of his power when he was corrupted, and this Ocean Pearl was only the husk of his former strength. Cthulhuʼs power was stolen by the skies, which is why he had always desired it, an insatiable fixation.

Sea God Lanyuʼs hate turned into a demon god when he realized that the heavens were manipulating his fate to slay his only family. However, the masterʼs heart within him calms his thoughts and shields him from the inside out. Despite Lanyuʼs lack of control over this divinity, this gold heart will always guard him—even from himself.

RUMBLES~ BOOM!

{Why... Why are you stopping me? I want to destroy the heavens that force me to kill you!} Sea God Lanyu said with his hands above his chest.

As he was talking to himself, Sea God Lanyu was struck by another strong lightning strike. He was safely shielded from the thunderʼs turmoil by the barrier surrounding him. The thunder above his head continued to rain, seemingly intending to destroy him, but it was unable to breach the barrier surrounding Sea God Lanyu, even after his demonization ended.

There was a connection between the Ancient God Cthulhu and the Heavenly Laws of this universe. One exists to use unmatched power to balance the planet, while the other exists to keep it safe. They are both products of the world and might be viewed as siblings. But as the old god came close to passing away, the skies ignored him. Its goal was to rule the world by itself.

The world has changed in the absence of the Ancient Godʼs protection. It was overrun by foreigners.

There are two: the Ruin of Time Dungeons and the Tower of God. This is something that has been introduced by an outsider to rule this world. These things have been sown and raised in this globe without the Ancient God guarding the planet itself. The skies could no longer control it already. The Heavenly Laws of this universe had really become weaker after being reset once.

Instead, the outsiders grew more powerful in silence.

For this reason, Su Jin and Lu Ming, the two main characters, were called upon to strengthen their positions. They can only defend their world once they reach a certain level of strength. Su Jin received the ocean pearl from the Heavenly Laws for the same reason. He desired for him to succeed the old god. Sadly, the power contained in that pearl is only a semblance of the Ancient Godʼs might.

Cthulhuʼs true strength was bestowed upon Sea God Lanyu, his final adherent, who now detests the heavens for forcing them to murder their master.

The final attempt by the Heavenly Laws to eradicate all evidence of the Ancient God is the unexpected arrival of the Tribulation Thunder. However, their power soon equaled. There will never be another ancient deity born on this earth unless he destroys the sea god Lanyu.

Su Jinʼs greatest chance of becoming a hero is if he manages to obtain the power found in the Ocean Pearl; otherwise, Lanyu inherits all remaining divinity.

The Tribulation Thunder continued to fall on Lanyu, but as expected, there were no effects. The Heavenly Laws had finally spoken, and the arrogance in his words was unparalleled.

{Alas, mʼrtal! Wherefore thee not just kicketh the bucket and giveth yond divinity to one of my own children!? yond powʼr isnʼt did suppose to falleth to someone of thy calibʼr.}

Translation: [Damn, Mortal! Why donʼt you just die and give that divinity to one of my children!? That power isnʼt supposed to fall to someone of your caliber.]

Sea God Lanyu retorted. His hatred for the heavens had been ingrained in his soul. He shouted back at him.

{This is the heart of my lord. He is the rightful God of this world, not a selfish piece of sh*t like you are! You are the one who should be doomed!}

{Gaze thee tongue, mʼrtal! The only real god in this world is supposed to be Beest. Yond ancient god is not supposed to be born, and tʼs authʼrity shouldnʼt have been mine. That gent is dead, and everything of his shouldst be gone. Once thou art dead, yond divinity shalt become mineth!}

Translation: [Watch your tongue, Mortal! The only real God in this world is supposed to be. That ancient god was not supposed to be born, and its authority should have been mine. He is dead, and everything of his should be mine. Once you are dead, that divinity will become mine!]

The other mortals in the region were taken aback when the sky spoke. All mortals were under his jurisdiction, yet Ye Jieyeʼs barrier functions as his own personal territory. Even this worldʼs Heavenly Laws had no power over those beneath his wings inside this barrier.

Lu Shang commented, ”This is not my first time seeing a Heavenly Law acting like this. But seriously, this is an embarrassing scene.”

”What can you expect from a lower-class world? But truly, this kind of Heavenly Law should be disciplined,” Leica said as he suddenly turned to look at Ji Yoonjun and said, ”This world is your mission. What is your occupation?”

Ji Yoonjun fell on his knee and answered, ”This little one is a stabilizer. But it seems that there are errors in this world, and the Ancient God isnʼt supposed to die.”

”That ancient god is long dead, but his successor obviously had no attachment to this world. After he completed this tribulation, he would most likely leave. What should be done, honey?” Lu Shang asked. He is an executioner. He can kill any god and destroy worlds, but... Repairing it is beyond his skill set.

Ye Jieye, who is also a repairer, commented. ”There is only one way. First, Heavenly Laws cannot exist. It doesnʼt have enough intelligence and has been influenced by outsiders for too long. You need to create another set of Heavenly Laws that is incorporated with the true wills of this worldʼs descendants.”

He turned to face Su Jin, Lu Ming, and Mo Yuhan. These two are the only ones that might be linked to both the Ancient God and the Heavenly Laws. Additionally, there is Mo Yuhan, who has a connection to the above realm. These three should be able to stabilize their world if they cooperate.

Ji Yoonjun looked bewildered. ”But these guys are too young and still mortals.”

”They can grow up and become gods in the future. Since their love for this world exists, they would be a better choice than that arrogant thing. Youʼre a stabilizer. Your job is to remain in this world until it completely functions normally,” Ye Jieye said.

Ji Yoonjun said, ”Yes, this humble one accepts the command from the sovereign.”

”Go do your work. Let these two support you to remove those Heavenly Laws,” Ye Jieye said. Leica and Lu Shang immediately understood their task after being pointed out by their lord. After all, the death of the Heavenly Laws can cause chaos in the world.

”Yes, my lord!” Leica and Lu Shang responded.

The others, however, will have to wait until Sea God Lanyu has finished ascending. The scene of a god battling the skies is currently being watched by all; the other mortals were already asleep when the heavens spoke. It was just Doctor Hei who had suddenly rejected it. To stay awake, he treated himself with his own pheromones.

He used all of his efforts and was so exhausted that he had to go to sleep. He remained silent the entire time, so no one saw that he was awake. However, he overheard their chat, which only served to confirm his enlightenment.

Doctor Heiʼs thoughts, ʼThe truth of this world is crazier than I thought.ʼ
